I farm 1 hectares of onions in Eastern Region. This season I'm dealing with yields that have halved for two seasons. I've tried what the local suppliers recommended, but results aren't improving. I'm looking for an agronomist or experienced grower who can look at photos, soil-test results and my planting plan, and advise on what to change. A 30-minute call or exchange of messages would be fantastic. I'm happy to share photos and a soil test. I'm using only what I can afford, so low-cost suggestions are best. I'll share how it goes - and what worked - to help others in the community. Thanks for being kind about this.

                    so sorry you're going through this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 25 people at work.
